Description Wei-Lun Chao 2005-04-25 02:16:29 UTC 
Please describe the problem:
to read the help docs, there should be
a help file.

Steps to reproduce:
1. right click on panel
2. click on add to panel
3. click on help


Actual results:
error message:
can not find help file.

Expected results:
help file displayed by yelp

Does this happen every time?
yes

Comment 1 John Fleck 2005-05-05 02:04:37 UTC 
Have you installed the gnome-user-docs package? The panel's help files are
installed in that package.
Comment 2 Wei-Lun Chao 2005-05-05 02:38:02 UTC 
yes (rpm -qi gnome-user-docs)

the error message from panel:
"The section gospanel-5 does not exist"

the error message from add to panel:
"The section gospanel-28 does not exist"
Comment 3 Kjartan Maraas 2005-05-12 12:12:43 UTC 
Looks like the add to panel thing should be "gospanel-15":

    <section id="gospanel-15">
      <title>To Add an Object to a Panel</title>
      <!-- Desktop Overview / Panels / To Add Objects to Panels -->
      <anchor id="gosoverview-4"/>
      <indexterm>
        <primary>panel objects</primary>
        <secondary>adding</secondary>
      </indexterm>

The one for the general panel doc should be changed to "gospanel-1" it seems.

Attaching a patch that you can try
Comment 4 Kjartan Maraas 2005-05-12 12:19:25 UTC 
Hmm. the "gospanel-28" section referenced from panel-properties-dialog.c is
definitely there in gospanel.xml. Not sure what's up there.

Please ignore the irrelevant bits in the patch. They shouldn't cause any
problems anyway.
Comment 7 Vincent Untz 2005-05-31 11:21:49 UTC 
Why was this closed? AFAIK, the patch was never committed...
Comment 8 Christian Kirbach 2005-06-01 13:14:14 UTC 
Confirming bug. (Gnome 2.10)

It points to the wrong section in documentation.

Kjartan please close if/once you have commited the patch.
Comment 9 Kjartan Maraas 2005-06-05 14:25:40 UTC

Comment 11 Vincent Untz 2005-06-07 22:56:16 UTC
